NBA 315 Mavericks vsSuns
In the last preseason game of the NBA, the Dallas Mavericks made a difference in the quarter and defeated Utah Jazz 115-101. The preseason came to an end for the time being, and the Mavericks finally achieved a record of 2 wins and 2 losses. During the game, the Mavericks' substitute , Tim Hardaway, Jr., performed well. He played 24 minutes and 38 seconds in the game, made 5 of 7 shots, 4 of 5 from outside the three-point line, and 6 of 10 free throws. He efficiently scored 20 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist and 2 steals, and the plus and negative value was as high as +11. It is precisely because of the brave performance of Hardaway in the fourth quarter that the Mavericks were able to open the score in the fourth quarter and successfully win the game.
When the ball rights and playing time are very limited, Hardaway Jr. fully demonstrated his talent on the offensive end. Especially his three-point efficiency is even more incredible. After a long injury, Hardaway's condition is gratifying and it seems that he has completely emerged from the injury. For the Mavericks, they also have reason to expect something from the new season. The Mavericks let down the backcourt player Jaylen Brunson this summer, which also caused the team's backcourt strength to decline to a certain extent. Many people believe that the Mavericks' competitiveness and record may not be stronger than last season. However, with Hardaway Jr. returning from injury and joining two inside players, Christian Wood and Javier McGee , the overall strength of the team seems to have improved to a certain extent.
In the whole game, Doncic played for 30 minutes, made 9 of 18 shots, including 2 of 9 three-pointers and 4 of 6 free throws, scoring the highest 24 points in the game. He also scored 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, with plus or negative value +6. The Mavericks have made greater adjustments and progress compared to before. The Sun has not adjusted much, and has Devin Booker , and its strength cannot be underestimated. Mavericks vs. Suns, both sides will struggle in this game, but the Mavericks should be slightly better.
